Qing Yan needs to calm down. Transmigrating is one thing, but becoming an infant? Is this a joke? When she was three years old, she met a jade-carved little boy. Qing Yan's eyes immediately lit...
Highly recommended:
It was nearly evening when the carriage arrived at the naval port. Fei Yanggu waited in the operations room in the main courtyard, and even had Aktun stay at the door.
"Father-in-law, is something the matter?" Yin was seeing Fei Yanggu in such a hurry for the first time, so he quickly came over.
Feiyanggu looked terrible, and Saito and Eshuo even led their troops out.
"Yes, His Majesty has secretly sent a coded message. Fourth Prince, are the servants at the Yuanmingyuan all loyal?" he quickly asked.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yin was stunned. Why did he ask that question?
"It shouldn't be a big problem, Father. Has something happened in the capital?" Qingyan became a little nervous.
"His Majesty is planning to send Consort Tong to live in the Yuanmingyuan Garden. Is Jiuzhou Qingyan suitable?" Fei Yanggu asked directly. "Prime Minister Suo gave the Crown Prince this idea, and His Majesty is worried that it will cause trouble for Consort Tong."
Yin's face was very ugly, and he felt a little sad. When had his mother ever been treated like this?
"Of course I can. I... I also plan to use this opportunity to find out about Mother." Yin felt distressed.
"Fourth Prince, the capital is in chaos. It's good that His Majesty has placed the Empress under house arrest. The Nine Continents Banquet is basically staffed by your people, which can ensure the Empress's safety!" The Changchun Garden is in chaos, and Kangxi doesn't have much energy to take care of Consort Tong.
The Empress Dowager sided with the Crown Prince again, and things escalated quite a bit.
"Lord Ulanara, what is the situation in the capital?" Yin asked, somewhat worried about Consort Hui. "Where is my mother?"
“Prince Zhi, it is said that Consort Hui and Consort Tong have been placed under house arrest, and it is planned that they will both be moved to Jiuzhou Qingyan!” Fei Yanggu replied.
Yin breathed a sigh of relief. As long as his mother could be with Consort Tong, her safety should be guaranteed.
"Fourth brother, I'm entrusting my mother to you!" Yin quickly said, glancing at Yin.
Starting the next day, Yin and his companion tightened the guard on the naval port and made people pay extra attention to news from the capital. After a few days, the attitude of the officials in the south became somewhat ambiguous. Yin tentatively prepared some things, and those officials began to take sides.
Upon hearing Erlu's report, Yin sighed inwardly, "The struggle for the throne among the nine princes has begun, and the crown prince... is about to be deposed."
Back then, he didn't know much about these things. By then, Consort Tong had passed away and couldn't give him much information about the harem.
"Little darling, things are about to get chaotic outside. Are you planning to personally go to Linglong Pavilion to oversee things today?" Yin asked Qingyan.
Today, the Dragon Guard, the Dark Guard, and the Shadow Guard are divided into three parts to directly assist the Hung Gang in protecting that batch of evidence.
"Of course, if I weren't there to oversee things, there might be trouble!" Yin and the others relayed the message from Fei Yanggu to the Hong Gang, requesting that the escort mission be postponed until two or three days later.
Qingyan changed into a bright red palace dress with a half-up collar and arrow sleeves, embroidered with colorful gold thread and Suzhou-style flowers. She also wore a set of gold hairpins with five precious peony flowers on her head.
"Sisi, do you want to come with me?" Yin Genjue Luo Shi was nearly two months pregnant and had started experiencing morning sickness.
Therefore, Yin told Yin to let him train in the camp and accompany Yin Genjueluo.
"Are you physically capable?" Qingyan was almost three months pregnant, and the baby's condition was gradually stabilizing.
"Thankfully, the child is good and hasn't caused me too much trouble!" Qingyan smiled.
Yin often scolded the child, telling him to hurry up. Sometimes she would laugh at him unkindly, saying that the child couldn't hear anything outside when she took him back.
"After we've had breakfast, we'll leave!" Yin promised the twins that the family of four would definitely have breakfast and dinner.
After breakfast, the twins were taken to the study to read, and Yin helped Qingyan into the carriage.
Behind the carriage followed five or six other carriages, all with roofs and servants sitting outside, as if all the most distinguished female relatives had come out.
Upon arriving at the side gate of Linglong Pavilion, carriages entered one after another. Some spies who were keeping watch noticed this and quickly went back to report.
"Little darling, this is a good idea!" Yin noticed that the Hong Gang members were already waiting there, and there were many boxes piled up in the courtyard.
The gang leader himself came over, dressed in a black outfit, and stood in the center of the courtyard.
"Master, you've come in person?" Qingyan walked straight over. "The boxes are all sealed and will be transported to the capital along with the jewelry. Linglong Pavilion has already taken care of everything!"
Qingyan's words reassured the gang leader, who then waved his hand and ordered everyone to start moving the boxes.
Two hours later, Qingyan went to the private room in person and watched the Hong Gang's escort team leave. The gang leader then took his leave.
"Little darling, you've been tired all morning, do you want to take a break?" Yin put his arm around Qingyan's waist, preparing to let her rest for a while.
"No need. I'll be at ease once Father's men receive this batch of evidence in a few days!" Qingyan was genuinely worried that these things would be stolen.
"You definitely can!" Yin reassured her.
"Don't try to comfort me. This batch of jewelry is very valuable and conspicuous. Plus, we have a lot of evidence... there are so many boxes. Those people in the capital might overthink things." After the bodyguards left, Qingyan felt uneasy.
"The more obvious it is, the less they will believe it!" Yin knew Suo Xiang's style very well. He was too confident in himself, which is why he had become like this.
Qingyan leaned against him, closing his eyes to conserve his energy. The atmosphere around them was somewhat oppressive. Officials in the south were preparing to take sides. Every move in the capital could change their attitudes at any time, so Yin and Yinhe definitely had to be careful.
After lunch, the two returned to the naval port. As soon as they entered the gate, Yin noticed unfamiliar people in the courtyard and quickly asked Su Peisheng about them.
"Master, it is said that the county magistrate has come, and that he has come to deal with Prince Zhi and you!" Su Peisheng was somewhat disdainful of the county magistrate, who was a fence-sitter who would side with whoever was stronger.
"Little darling, come with me to take a look?" Yin tilted his head and asked Qingyan.
"Okay!" Qingyan said with a smile.
The two walked in one after the other. Yin noticed that Yin was not with him, and he looked at Su Peisheng again.
“Prince Zhi is still training and hasn’t had lunch yet,” Su Peisheng said, and the county magistrate quickly stood up.
"This servant greets the Fourth Master and Fourth Princess!" said Magistrate Hu Teng.
Yin waved his hand, waiting for Hu Teng to continue explaining his purpose. Qingyan sized up the county magistrate in front of him. The man was only about forty years old and looked rather weak. He seemed like a lazy bum who was just waiting to die.
"Today, I heard from my servants that the Fourth Prince and his wife went out, and they brought quite a few female relatives with them!" Upon hearing this, Yin narrowed his eyes.
"Hmm, these are things that the Fujin (consort) wants to send to the capital. Every year, Linglong Pavilion gives Mother hair ornaments and other items. I didn't know that you had to manage the gifts between women?" Yin sneered.
